President Trump is going to receive a un-biased trial from the Columbian born judge Juan Merchan, Oh Sure!

 

[Aldebaran]

It seems pretty obvious how it's all going to turn out.
Hopefully the inevitable verdict will be overturned by the SCOTUS as a result of these facts.

In my opinion it's in your face (Banana Republic)

Of course the US Supreme Court and world is watching the developments and privy of the facts such as this, and this judge Merchan won't recuse himself

To think one liberal woman, ex director of the ACLU who is now secretary of state in Maine (Sheena Bellows), she removed President Trump from the states ballot for the 2024 election in Nov, and it took the US Supreme Court to reverse her actions, "One Liberal Person" who was going to decide the outcome of a presidential election?

I'm glad that you agree that Trump appointed judges can't be unbiased or SCOTUS judge Thomas is swayed by his wife.

Trump's lawyers are free to appeal to a higher court if they think that a daughter having political activities is cause to recuse a judge. That's never been supported before.

"But I'm special!"

Good luck with that, Donald.

What does his ethnicity have to do with ability to act without bias?

Can you imagine what kind of pearl-clutching outrage there would be, if someone suggested that an Anglo judge couldn't be impartial?

Yep, he was 6 years old when his family came here.

He's not entitled to a fair trial. He's a Republican.

just the fact he refuses to recuse himself

shows how biased he is/plans to be

 

[The Barbarian]

He's not entitled to a fair trial. He's a Republican.

A fair trial is exactly what he doesn't want.

 

[The Barbarian]

just the fact he refuses to recuse himself

shows how biased he is/plans to be

After all, Donald Trump ordered him to recuse himself. And he didn't.

Obviously biased, right?

 

[Truth7t7]

Obviously biased, right?

Very Obvious

Judge Merchan donated to democratic causes to stop Trump in 2016, his daughter has business for profit that has been active in the campaigns of Biden/Harris

Very Obvious

Does a conservative judge need to be "swayed by his wife" to be conservative and make constitutional decisions? I Think not !

I'm glad that you agree that what you say also applies to liberal judges.

Was she over 17? An independent adult?
Do your children share your political views?
You are grasping at straws.

 

[Yarddog]

And you'd also agree that judge Cannon, handling the classified documents case, refusal to recuse herself proves that she will be biased for Trump, since he appointed her

I'm glad that you agree that what you say also applies to liberal judges.

I wasn't the one complaining about any of the Supreme Court Judges.

Who cares? My husband’s siblings and best friends all worked indirectly for the Trump campaign. I guess that means on paper he would appear biased to Trump, but let me tell you… Trump doesn’t want him as a judge or member of the jury.
